Corey Simms and Leah Messer didn’t work out, as you know if you watch Teen Mom 2 online, but he and Miranda Patterson are on solid ground.
Despite rumors of a Corey and Miranda Simms divorce that were triggered by social media comments earlier this month, they’re fine.
Seriously. Like Chelsea Houska and Cole DeBoer, they are one of the rare Teen Mom couples you don’t have to worry about lately.
Miranda and Corey were recently caught up in controversy after a Facebook account attributed to him referred to being a “single” dad.
Luckily, it’s not true, and Miranda Simms took to Twitter to explain.
“That most definitely is a Fake Facebook,” Miranda told her fans.
“Corey and I have a private FB for only family & close friends!”
In a second tweet days later, Miranda added, “Those rumors def aren’t true! We actually celebrated 3 years of marriage yesterday.”
Bottom line: Whatever beef they have with Leah is one thing, and we likely haven’t seen the end of that, but as a couple, they’re golden.
Almost lost in the shuffle amid Leah’s non-stop drama is the fact that Corey and Miranda became parents themselves fairly recently.
Besides the twin girls he shares with Leah Messer, the couple are the parents of a daughter Remi, who just celebrated her first birthday.
Don’t expect to see much of her on MTV going forward, though.
Insiders say Corey was not a fan of the ongoing drama surrounding Messer and her alleged drug use playing out as it did on the air.
“[Corey Simms] feels MTV did him dirty,” a friend explained.
How so? Simms believed producers “let Messer off easy.”
“He thinks they had the perfect opportunity to show [Teen Mom 2] viewers, ‘This is what happens when you get on drugs, this is reality."”
“Instead, they made it seem like Corey was constantly attacking Leah for no reason,” the source claimed, and he scaled back on filming.
“[Corey] told producers what he thought about the situation, and said that he and Miranda would not film nearly as much as in past seasons.”
As for his ex-wife, Leah Messer also slammed producers for what she felt was an unfair portrayal this season, so they have that in common.
Then again, in her case it was a little more complicated.
After all, she was taken to task repeatedly for perceived parenting fails as well as her handling of relationships with both of her ex-husbands.
It’s a turbulent world out there for those Teen Moms.
